Thoughts in the rain

“Call it what you will, I call it rain”

There is just something about rain that I love. Maybe that comes from living in a place where rain is so frequent that I have to learn to live with it but I think it is something more than that. I am sitting on my bed on vacation in a warm hot place and the rain is pouring down outside but really I am not that upset. There is something about rain that is calming even with the thunder and lightning; it makes you slow down, relax and that is something that we all need to do every once and a while.

Drops racing down my window

Falling from the sky

Breathing life into this old earth

Helping it to fly

The smell of dust rises up

Thunder begins to sound

The flash of lightning wakes me up

As the water swirls around

Like music the drops fall down

Making their journey from sky to earth

Watering the ground

And creating new birth

So today I will spend time relaxing and enjoying my day and thanks for listening to my thoughts on this day.
